problem of this dilemma is that it suggests that everyone will pick the choice of not confessing because it is the best choice to choose from. But there are other factors that can skew decision. Factors such as emotion. Emotion can result in people to act out of reason, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does count as an aspect doing certain actions. In relation to the prisoner 's dilemma, Convict A, as I will call him, may have hated the other convict, Convict B. It is this hatred…

Growing up in a world where there is so much pressure to be successful, numerous people are frightened of being ostracized for being themselves. As a young child, completely care free, opinions of others or how they might look at me never crossed my mind. But the older we get, conforming to the rules became the norm, a drastic change occurred as a yearning for acceptance grew.

Responding directly to Benhabib’s criticism, Butler notes her misreading of the “doer beyond the deed” (as opposed to the “doer behind…

Women have endured since ancient times the title as the inferior being, the “other” gender besides the man, the weaker and less valuable specimen. This gender inequality created a huge difference between men and women, placing women’s rights under men’s jurisdiction, which dictated what women were and were not allowed to do. This issue was analyzed by the French and…

Introduction In Testo Junkie: Sex, Drugs, and Biopolitics in the Pharmacopornographic Era, Beatriz Preciado uses their body and their body of work as a means of transing theory.

Although Rufus is the white son of a slaveholder in the 1800’s, Dana’s initial plan for autonomy was to change and improve Rufus’s perception. Coming from 1976, she believes she can make headway towards racial equality because she lives in a time which it has become a reality. She figures if she is saving his life on multiple occasions, he might be willing to listen to her. Mitchell agrees with this theory as she points out “Rufus lives only because Dana saves his life again and again” (54).…

regarding global chaos and the possibility of individual culpability that inundated popular thought in the aftermath of World War I informs William Butler Yeats’s poem, “The Second Coming.” At its core, the poem is an exploration of the equivocal boundaries between individual agency—and further, responsibility—and the inevitability of world events determined by an act of divine providence. Rather than embracing negative capability, the speaker of the poem seeks desperately for resolution, an…
